Still just desperately sad about this. Terrorism or an individual suicide are comprehensible. With this....

What's that German word for 'hate of/for the world' ?

Weltschmerz?

Yes, but I think I'm wrong, as the word isn't really about hate more sadness for/with the world?

Yeah, it translate more into "hurting for the world". But I'm sure the Germans also have a word for hating the world with a passion.

Yes that's what were looking for.

Yes, but it has been illegal to use after the Nuremberg Trials.

I figured.

According to documents found during the search of the co-pilot's home, he was in medical treatment, though so far there's no info what he suffered from. There were several doctor's notes for medical leave, some of them torn up, including for the day of the incident. He hadn't told his employer about this medical condition/leave.

I may be tires (only slept 4 hours, ending a big transaction) but isnt't the "fatalities per km" metrics a bit misleading? I mean planes naturally are used to travel much longer distance so why the metrics may make planes look good, if you take into account fatalities per trip (flight, train ride etc.) planes stop looking so good. Or am I wrong?

There is no one right metric.  If you have to go somewhere, then that somewhere will be the same distance away, more or less, whether you go by plane or walk on foot.  In that context, per-mile statistics make the most sense.

All airlines should require that there should be at least two people in the cockpit at all times.  That should be effective immediately.  If you want to pee, you need to get someone to take your seat first.  Isn't 100% proof, but is better than nothing. 

Yeah, that isn't going to stop a really dedicated pilot from putting the plane in grave danger, but it  is a start. And it also seems like a good idea for other reasons, like making sure something simply doesn't happen to a single pilot alone in the cockpit.

There were two pilots in the cockpit of that EgyptAir flight apparently.

He was in psychiatric care and would have lost his flight license if he had told Germanwings.

[Syt]

And with good reason, as it turns out.

BTW, does Germanwings sound better in German than it does in English?
